Everybody is Talking Tough Times

A sobering chat with CHML's Scott Thompson on the radio this week includes musings on the meltdown at Canwest Global (good thing CHML's a Corus station), fear and panic overall in the television industry and--to change the subject--my new weekly radio spot across the border on Ohio's WIMA. You can listen in here.
Meanwhile, it sounds like it won't be a merry Christmas at CTV either as that network braces for job cuts in the face of a severe advertising slowdown. Read the advance story here; the actual cuts were expected to be announced at a network town hall meeting occuring this afternoon.
